PROGRAM LEARNING OUTCOMES Upon completion of this program a student will be able to:

• Students will recognize the value of wearing safety glasses in the lab by: 1) describing the dangers to the eyes in the welding lab, (such as UV rays, projectiles, chemicals and sparks/molten material); 2) complying consistently with the Department policy of always wearing safety glasses in the lab. • Students will determine several advantages and disadvantages of a given welding process, and diferentiate between diferent welding processes. • Students will correctly list steps for setup and shut down of regulator and torch set for Oxy Acetylene welding. In the lab, they will perform these steps and correctly adjust for a neutral fame. • Students will set up an arc welding power supply and its related components for SMAW, GMAW and GTAW processes, strike an arc, and complete a weld in the fat position compliant with AWS D1.1 code standards.
